Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 500g starchy potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold)
  • 150g to 200g tapioca starch
  • 4 to 5 cloves fresh garlic, finely minced
  • 2 stalks green onions, finely sliced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or Tamari
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 tablespoons high-heat oil (avocado or grapeseed)
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Wash and peel the potatoes, cut into uniform cubes and place in cold salted water.
  2. Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes until soft.
  3. Drain the potatoes and mash them while still hot using a ricer for a smooth texture.
  4. Add tapioca starch, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the mash and knead gently until a non-sticky dough forms.
  5. Roll the dough into small balls or flatten into discs, creating patterns with a fork.
  6. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the potato pieces for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
  7. In the last minute of cooking, add soy sauce and green onions, tossing everything quickly.

Notes

Use fresh garlic for a more complex flavor; ensure potatoes are drained well to avoid sticky dough.
